January was a busy month, and I’m proud to share what I’ve been working on for the people of Illinois’ 6th District. I look forward to continuing this work throughout the year. For more updates, subscribe to my newsletter at casten.house.gov

The Trump Administration claims the Treasury has authority over Venezuelan assets. I asked Treasury Secretary Bessent directly what grants him this authority. He seemed to have no idea that he controlled these assets, let alone the authority behind them.


Must listen from Sean Casten.

Notable exchange between Rep. Sean Casten (D-Ill.) and Bessent on how exactly Treasury is holding Venezuelan assets “in custody” post Maduro capture. It’s the most detailed exchange on these mechanics I’ve seen.



Thank you, Sean.

I voted against the funding package considered by the House today because we must prevent the further murder of Americans, ensure due process, and address the catastrophic failures by Kristi Noem and the Department of Homeland Security.

Earlier this month, I was asked at my town hall: What can be done about a judicial system that has lost the faith of the public?? There are actions Congress can take right now to hold the Supreme Court accountable. We must use every constitutionally granted power we have to act…

Trump destroys everything he touches.

US Consumer Confidence plunged in January to the lowest level since May 2014. You read that correctly. Confidence is now *worse* than during the Covid pandemic. All political affiliations, ages and income levels saw a decline in January (esp. in their 6-month outlook), the…

On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we honor the memory of the six million Jews and the millions of others murdered during the Holocaust. We have a responsibility to confront antisemitism and all forms of hatred and bigoted violence. We must never forget this history, and…


Thank you, Sean!

Sean is a cosponsor of articles of impeachment against Secretary Kristi Noem, who has overseen the baseless murder of Americans. He voted against funding for DHS & is now working to ensure the Senate shuts down any additional money to Trump’s ICE amid their lawlessness. (1/2)

People have asked what can be done in the wake of the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Congress has the power of the purse. We must use it. Three days ago, I opposed a funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security because it did not put an end to ICE’s lawlessness.…

Thank you, Sean.

Congress, having the power of the purse, has an opportunity to respond to the murder and baseless arrests of American citizens, the cruel and inhumane conditions detainees are subjected to, and the denial of due process to both citizens and non-citizens. The Department of…
